  • Troy O.

One of the most unique places I've visited in old Montreal. The drinks are expertly crafted with great care, imagination, flare and exciting ingredients. I've never tasted drinks that literally took my breath away for a split second. It was truly amazing!!! Will visit everytime I return. Promises Promises.

  • Anthony Tenace

Wandered in after leaving a restaurant and met Stephen, the bartender. The cutest little place and the nicest bartender we’ve ever met! Turns out it was his last shift, and we had a great time sharing it with him. Best of luck to him in his management position! 110% recommend this place; the best!

  • Ritz Zcks

If you walk too fast you might miss it!! Self proclaimed as the smallest bar in Canada what it lacks in space it makes up for in charm. The bartender was passionate about rum, their specialty cocktails and the allure of Cuba. I liked the daquiri -refreshing, not sweet, with a hint of citrus

  • Lisa Mo

Great small rum bar, somewhat connected to the Cold Room. Cozy, intimate atmosphere. Best rum selection we've seen in Montreal. Great rum cocktails, and the bartender can also improvise off-menu. We had amazing chats with him about different rums and he's super knowledgeable. More

  • Maria Markova

Fantastic tiny bar with well-made cocktails and some food options. The bartender there made us some great cocktails, including off-the menu ones and was great to chat with. There is also a surprise speakeasy style bar downstairs. Just press the doorbell right outside the bar.

  • Step Tav

Without a doubt, one of the best bars I have ever been to! Our bartender Nick was attentive, creative, informative, and knew exactly what to make for me and my friend based on our preferences. The mojitos are delicious too! Love the ambiance of the small and intimate space.

  • Mo Aces

Stopped in here for quick drink. It’s obviously a very small place, but we were able to grab a couple seats at the bar. The cocktails were great. The bartender was super friendly and even gave us a few suggestions for places to visit in Montréal. Highly recommend!

  • Jane Tan

Honestly my favourite place in town! Every night there is a warm and special experience awaiting you. The drinks are amazingly crafted with love. My favourite way to experience it is to go alone to the bar and enjoy the random encounter of people passing through.

  • Scott Love

We loved this little Cuban inspired cocktail bar! It really is a tiny place but the drinks are great and the service and atmosphere even better. We didn’t eat here, not even sure if they serve food. We would love to have the chance to return one day! More

  • Dayana Gomez

We went on the first day open after the winter and we were ecstatic to visit. The smallest bar you will visit in Montreal and we can confirm this lol. The vibes transport you to Cuba. I never been to Cuba but I hope it’s like this hahahaha.

  • Stephen Inniss

A tiny bar located right next to The Coldroom & across from Bar Bisou Bisou, El Pequeño bar stands out from its sister bars. Like it's name, its very small, seats less than 10 people and little standing room. But rather than detracting, it

  • Dave Moraseski

Best rum bar in the city. Enjoyed a daiquiri, a Hemingway daiquiri, a jungle bird, and a mai tai. Every drink was well crafters by an expert bartender, who made sure we enjoyed each drink he made for us. He even made a mocktail for my wife

  • Lisa George

I had really been looking forward to trying this place since I walked by. Their menu is simple and satisfying. With so few drinks listed, you know they will do them right. And you have to respect that they stick to well made classics like

  • Shpendi Tarevski

El Pequeño is a unique and charming spot for a great cocktail and better conversation. The decor looks like you teleported to Cuba and the bartender Stephen was so eager to offer great places to visit and eat during our time in Montreal.

  • Chelsey

Searching for something to quench your thirst? Look no further. Looking for something to fill your hungry stomach? Well, you can look further, but I would suggest a 2 for 1. One of the best mixed drinks and cocktail bar you’ll find in

  • shallu

My friends and I had an excellent experience at this little bar. We were visiting from out of town and it was our second time there. Stephen was the bartender who served us and he was wonderful and accommodating. We asked if we could

  • D T

Upon visiting this fine establishment I had high expectations, for outside I could see the laughter, feel the cheer, and sense a general what the kids would say “good vibe,” yet upon ordering the banana chips, I found myself highly

  • Luciana G

Drinks at the bar are really good! Super overpriced though! Staff is ok, considering the prices at this bar, I was expecting a lot more! If you are going with a group of 7 or biggest, they don’t split the bill! Be aware of it! More

  • Best Quests

Taking the title Canada's smallest bar   @elpequenobarmtl definitely delivers on its accurate name. A very intimate setting where you will most definitely make freinds as no conversation is private in the 9 seat, rhum focused bar.

  • Jaclyn Z

Wonderful place. Amazing drinks. Bartender was friendly and helpful and offered wonderful conversation and helpful tips for navigating the city. Highly recommend the Hummingbird cocktail. Definitely worth a stop when in Montreal.

  • Vanessa Ruscetta

The best bar in Montreal with such hospitable bartenders! Visited twice and it was a great experience both times. Stephen made us amazing custom cocktails last night. The quality of drinks and overall atmosphere are top tier.

  • coolpiehead1234

This place is amazing! I stayed for hours trying new drinks, and had just a great time overall. Every drink I had was really well made and presented, the people who work here take great pride in what they do!

  • Julien D.

This bar is awesome. Period. The bartenders know their cocktails and are always welcoming. Distinctive establishment with a distinctive staff (s/o to Gaspard who keeps on making me discover new cocktails)!

  • Luz Alvarado

Come here for the best Mojito! Plus, the decor is super cute and makes you feel in La Habana. The only thing to make it more authentic would definitely be some Cuban salsa on the background!

  • Sandrine Messier

There's no wine and only one kind of beer, but this allows the customer to try their exclusive and delicious drinks. Prime spot, friendly staff and amazing vibes downtown old Montreal. More

  • Daniel Konioukhov

The El Pequeno is my new Jewel! It's a small cozy cuban bar located in the heart of the old port. They specialize in rum and hold a large selection of the liquor. The extent of their

  • Nicholas Pangakis

This review is far too late, but we were here last September. Gaspard is seriously the best bartender I've ever met. If Gaspard is still at El Pequeño, he deserves a big raise! More

  • Cydney Alexis

I forgot that I had been here before. I tiny hidden gem with classic cocktails and skilled bartenders that reminds me of my home city (Miami), with its Cuban music & vibe.

  • Jessica Richmond

The most impressive cocktail ever made in a rose-gold pineapple (ps it’s not on the menu)! This place is an absolute hidden gem. Focusing primarily on rum these people

  • F P

Great drinks and service. Don’t let the size fool you. This is A+ all the way. Needs some Cuban music to set it off though. Truly a hidden gem in Montreal. More

  • Merlyn Ledoux

Amazing experience! The cocktails were to die for and the service was amazing with Gaspard. Overall a great bar with a cool ambience and adorable concept. More

  • Emily Kawski

Came here after we went to the Cold Room… let me tell you, it’s better! Our bartender Gaspar was next level. He took the time to find out what we liked

  • William

The mixologist’s creative and delicious cocktails steal the spotlight. The intimate, cozy setting adds to the charm, creating good vibes all around.

  • Michael Ash

I was here a few weeks ago. The drinks were first class, and the staff were super friendly. Really enjoyed the espresso martini.

  • Kat D

Cute little bar. Good atmosphere. Service was good. Got a banana sazerac at $20 is was ok. Has an outdoor patio out front.

Friends were heading to the cold room, accidentally stumbled upon this place and I don’t have any regrets.

Had a unique experience in the smallest pub in Canada (that’s inside, they have lots of place outside).

Intriguing spot, came alone and felt great. Speciality cocktails… nic is the man. I love the ambiance
